Appropriate engineering controls

Engineering measures to reduce exposure: Ensure adequate ventilation. Provide exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to keep the airborne concentrations of vapors and mist below their respective threshold limit value.

Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment

Personal Protective Equipment

Eye protection: Goggles. Safety glasses with side-shields.

Skin and body protection: Long sleeved clothing. Chemical resistant apron. Gloves.

Respiratory protection: Respiratory protection is not necessary for normal handling. Good room ventilation or use of local exhaust (fume hood) is sufficient. Use a vapor respirator under conditions where exposure to the substance is apparent (e.g. generation of high concentrations of mist or vapor, inadequate ventilation, development of respiratory tract irritation), and engineering controls are not feasible. Be sure to use an approved/certified respirator or equivalent. .

Hygiene measures: Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Wash hands before breaks and immediately after handling the product. When using, do not eat, drink or smoke.

RE: Lot Numbering System

Dear Valued Customer:

This letter is to inform you of Spectrum Chemicals and Laboratory Products’ Lot Numbering System. The system is based on an alpha-numerical sequence which provides the month, year and location of production.

The lot numbering system utilized until 2010 is a sequence of six characters, two letters followed by four numbers. The first letter represents the year, for example, Y denotes 2009 and Z denotes 2010. The second letter represents the month and site, for example, A-L denotes January through December at Spectrum’s Gardena, CA facility, while M-X denotes January through December at the New Brunswick, NJ facility. The following four numbers are sequentially assigned. Example: ZI0928 = The 928th material produced in California in September 2010

The lot numbering system utilized for 2011 and forward, is a sequence of seven characters. The first character, a number, represents the production facility:

1 = Gardena, CA Facility 2 = New Brunswick, NJ Facility 3 = China Facility

The second character, a letter, represents the year. For example, A denotes 2011 and B denotes 2012. The third character, a letter, represents the month, with A denoting January and L denoting December. The following four numbers are sequentially assigned.

Example: 2AA0706 = The 706th material produced in New Jersey in January 2011
